Album: NIA (2000)Smithzonian Institute Of Rhyme[Gab:]
yeah yeah [2x]
[Lateef:]
Blackalicious
Lateef the truth speaker
[Gab:]
A little somethin
[Together:]
Now if you want some you best come with a gun
You cant fuck with the tongue or the way the song is sung
By lateef and blackalicious we keep it fat, delicious
Complete and grant your wishes
So peep the rap and listen
You cant be idle you best come trifle
But even with a rifle your stylell get stifled
[Lateef:] quick
[Gab:]
Lateef and blackalicious we coming for that dough to get
The lyrics that we wrote again
Are sounding rather vicous beyond scientific
I'll snap like a doberman I'm unable to hold it in
I really hope you feel it, check it out
Droppin the topic and me apocaplypse
Hip hop metroplis we stalkin mcs
Dont stop this marvelous three partners
This bottomless beat has opened wideness
Invitin us inside of its deep rhythmic enviroment
A labryinth its violent beings just won't be silent
And higher, and higher means to a world (?)
Where all I need is prez
And that is my rent
Just by fatting the rest
Who wont admire it
Wont rule as a tyrant
Dont condone viloence
Till the next man trys it
Dont tax no pirate
Just watch as I begin to shape your world
All mcs in the land spanked and baked and broiled
Charred and seasoned in a pan - damn
Awakened world stagnant even though they always been there
Laggin about exposing it to the hearing impaired establishment
Raw energy they cant be compared
Tag em then we drag them then we finshed - yeah
[Together:]
Now if you want some you best come with a gun
You cant fuck with the tongue or the way the song is sung
By lateef and blackalicious we keep it fat; delicious
Complete and grant your wishes
So peep the rap and listen
You cant be idle you best come trifle
But even with a rilfe your stylell get stifled
[Lateef:] quick
Let it hit them
The suffocation begins your soul it gets engulfed in
The sound like its emotion it works just like a potion
It hurts just like thats only motion gotta think about some rules
See it cant just all be coastin
Get to get the spectrum of the wave
Whenever you know its flowin
Got a notion and its deep keep it growing like the ocean dont get salty
Its just me get a dose thats instantaneous essential constantly
Fits like a constellation glowing natrually in facts you see the past
The future marches on triumphantly defiantly relentlessly
If it aint one thing its somethin something else
The instrumental that contributes to your mental health
As for most mcs we moving like a ninja that is killin ya stealthily
Handle your bizness candidly fool we gigantic globally locally
And organically aint nothing you gonna do thats gonna damage me
In this currency its tragedy we value beyond champion originality
Is this shit thats happen
We trigger an emotional response causes you to react violently
Yeah we trigger an emotional response causes you to react violently
[Together:]
Now if you want some you best come with a gun
You cant fuck with the tongue or the way the song is sung
By lateef and blackalicious we keep it fat; delicious
Complete and grant your wishes
So peep the rap and listen
You cant be idle you best come trifle
But even with a rifle your stylell get stifled
[Lateef:] quick
[Together:]
Lateef and blackalicious is coming for that dough to get
The lyrics that we wrote again are sounding rather vicious
Now if you want some you better come with a gun
You cant fuck with the tongue
Or your ass'll get stung by lateef and blackalicious
We keep it fat, delicious
Complete and grant your wishes we move just like eclipses
You cant be idle cause even with a title
And even with a rifle your styell get stifled - yeah
[Sample:] The king is going home to get his throne
From the root to the flute that's where everything started at...
